only words

i'm in love with words
i love how in an instant they can create something beautiful,
or something that cuts deeper than a knife.
put together in the right way, they can bring you to your knees;
they can make your heart stop.
in a moment, in a word; everything changes.
they can't be taken back.
they can be re-spoken, restated, restructured;
but their effects remain forever.
in the perfect order, paired with the perfect cords, they create the melody that changes your entire day; your whole being.
they can break your heart or heal it.
cut through your soul or seal it.
they change you.
they make you.
they are you.
only words.
